Brief Summary

Among aesthetic or cosmetic surgeries, breast augmentation was the most frequently performed and the endoscopic transaxillary approach has become the preferred incision for Asian women. As breast augmentation must be performed under general anesthesia accompanied by its effects and potential complications, types of general anesthesia may affect the quality of recovery. Currently, the two most common techniques of general anesthesia are inhalation anesthesia (IH) and total intravenous anesthesia (TIVA). The effects of these types of general anesthesia on the quality of recovery have been investigated for numerous surgical procedures. However, no prior studies have analyzed different types of anesthesia used for performing transaxillary endoscopic breast augmentation. This prospective, parallel, randomized controlled study will evaluate the effects of inhalation anesthesia vs. total intravenous anesthesia on the quality of recovery in patients undergoing transaxillary endoscopic breast augmentation.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Quality of recovery, postoperative day oneOn the 1st postoperative day

Quality of recovery is assessed by the 15-item Quality of Recovery (QoR-15) questionnaire. The total score of the 15-item QoR ranges from 0 to 150, and a higher score indicates a better outcome.

Quality of recovery, postoperative day twoOn the 2nd postoperative day

Quality of recovery is assessed by the 15-item Quality of Recovery (QoR-15) questionnaire. The total score of the 15-item QoR ranges from 0 to 150, and a higher score indicates a better outcome.
